Context of the invention

This invention relates to a packaging of child-proof shell (blister).

The use of shell packaging for certain items such as medicines for example is well known. As shown in figures 1 and 2, a shell packaging  traditional 10 is constituted by a shell 11, a frame 15, cavities 20, a product 30 and a coating layer 40. The base 11 and the cavities 20 are generally constituted by a thermoformed plastic support or other material applicable to This type of packaging. As for product 30, one tablet per example or other product, is placed in its cavity 20, a layer Coating 40, aluminum, cardboard or other applicable material, it is fixed on the base 11 in order to cover the part opening of the cavities 20. Usually, we remove the product 30 of its cavity 20 exerting pressure or manipulating cavity 20 in order to cause its opening (not indicated) by tearing or breaking the coating layer 40.

Generally, when the coating layer 40 It is sturdy or rigid, entrances (not indicated) or other spaces easily accessible are placed on the layer of coating 40 near each cavity 20. The entrances (not indicated) allow to easily remove the product 30 by the layer cover 40. The entrance (not indicated) is designed to be torn or perforated and thus allow product withdrawal 30

Although the shell-shaped packagings 10 are Suitable for numerous applications, they contain several defects of conception Indeed, if they are designed to facilitate the product recall 30 as described above, offer little resistance to children who can easily open the packaging 10. Childproof packaging is particularly recommended. for packages containing medicines packed one at a time. Several standards and directives impose the manufacture of packaging the child test In general, a childproof packaging should be conceived and subjected to a practice test in order to be able to affirm that the latter will be strong enough to prevent Children access to the product.

Although the child's safety represents a important aspect of the conception of a packaging, the latter it must also be conceived so that an adult can open it resorting to a minimum of instructions. In addition, it is convenient that this packaging can be opened by an adult without it being obliged to give evidence of a particular manual dexterity or effort. If only the defects found are taken into account currently, and described above, it is necessary to create packaging that resists children's testing.

Description of the invention

Figure 3 corresponds to an example panel of opening 120 with models of openings 123 and a perimeter 125. The openings 123 are conceived and arranged on the support of a shell packaging corresponding to traditional shell packaging illustrated by figures 1-2. The goal is to make understand that the invention covers a large number of configurations and possible shapes for both openings 123 as for opening panels 120.

Figures 4 and 5 show a shell base 11 supported by opening panel 120. Base 11 may also be well fixed on the opening panel 120 by means of Any applicable technique including adhesive support. By example, the opening panel 120 could be coated with a adhesive layer and heated and / or tight by application on the shell base 11. As shown in the figures, the cavities 20 are arranged in part at least through openings 123 over the opening panel 120. The back cover layer 40 with the frame 15 covers the shell base 11 on the opposite side of the opening panel 120.

Figure 6 corresponds to an example panel of barrier 110 with grille models 114 and a frame 115. In example method quality, the grilles 114 can be manufactured by means of a partial die or using others methods The limit of the grids 112 is designed to adjust sensitively with cavities. The panel frame 115 of barrier 110 appears in the form of a straight line; no However, it should be considered that the shape of the frame 115 can be modified and not necessarily be straight, to facilitate opening of an assembled packaging. The objective is to make understand that the invention covers a large number of configurations and shapes possible for both barrier panel 110 and grilles 114 or frame 115.

Figures 7 and 8 show a barrier panel 110 well fixed on the back cover layer of a shell packing. Barrier panel 110 may be fixed on the back cover layer 40 by any technique applicable including adhesive support. For example, the panel barrier 110 could be coated with a layer of adhesive and tight on the back cover layer 40.

Figures 9 and 10 correspond to an example of support, 130 which allows to mount a panel of tabs 140 (illustrated in Figure 11) according to the invention. A lining 137, Easy Seal Plus type manufactured by MeadWestvaco Corporation, with frame 139 is well fixed on support 131 with frame 135.

Figure 11 shows a panel model of tabs 140. The tab panel 140 is shown with legs at less partially separable 146 and a leg frame 142. In example method quality, the tab frame 142 can be mounted by practicing a partial die or using other methods valid. The objective is to make understand that the legs 146 They could also be totally separable. In addition, the framework of the platelet 140 may be formed (not indicated) to facilitate opening of a mounted package. The end that is to make understand that the tongue panel 140, the frame, the legs 146 and the frames of legs 142 could take numerous shapes and dimensions depending on the invention.

Figures 12 and 13 show the panel of tabs 140 of figure 11 with shaded parts 150 corresponding to the adhesive coating 137. The parts shaded 150 have a frame 155. According to the invention, an agent non-stick, such as silicone or wax-based products manufactured by J.M. Fry Company, or other applicable products, are fixed on the adhesive coating 137 in order to cover the parts shaded 150. Zones 150 are arranged to be located near the frames 142 of the legs 146.

Figures 14 and 15 show the panel of tabs 140 fixed on the barrier panel 110. The panel of tabs 140 may be fixed on the barrier panel 110 by means of any applicable technique including adhesive support 137. The non-stick layer prevents the grids 114 from sticking on the tabs 146 when the tabs are lifted. How I know shown in figure 15, the non-stick agent of the zones shaded 150 only refers to a part of the tongue panel 140, apart from the leg frame 142 in order to fix it well on barrier panel 110. This allows the end user to reach easily the product 30 contained in the shell allowing the finger or other mechanism more easily access the legs 146.

Figures 16 and 17 present another example of embodiment intended to create a separation between legs 146 and barrier panel 110. In this exemplary embodiment, the adhesive 137 already shown above in figures 9 and 10 and the areas coated with 150 anti-adhesive agent shown by the Figures 12 and 13 are deleted. Instead, any adhesive 160 with frame 165 is arranged on barrier panel 110. As is shown in figure 17, the arrangement in the center of the adhesive 160 allows to avoid the tongue panels 146 to stick against the barrier panel 110 and therefore presents the same advantages as those described above without being needed for that resort to a non-stick agent.

Figure 18 presents another example of embodiment linked to the invention. Barrier panel 210, the opening panel 220 and tongue panel 240 are fixed about over others along fold lines 215. With this exemplary embodiment, the tongue panel 240 can be fixed possibly over barrier panel 210 unused coatings or other systems intended to separate areas of the legs of the barrier panel 210. After having inserted a shell tray, the panels can be folded along the fold lines 215 and fixed on the barrier panel 210 on the outer part of the contour of the leg areas 246.

Figure 19 presents another example of embodiment linked to the invention. Barrier panel 310, the opening panel 320 and tongue panel 340 are arranged else. Barrier panel 310, opening panel 320 are connected to the tongue panel 340 along the lines of fold 315 at the level of the piece in the form of L 300. After the insertion of the shells 20 into the openings 123, the panels are fold along the fold lines 315. The shell base 11 is fixed on the opening panel 320 and on the panel of barrier 310 and barrier panel 310 is fixed on the panel of tabs 340 outside the leg areas 346. This example of realization corresponds to one of the different possibilities of arrangement covered by the claimed invention.

The peripheral areas of the opening panel, the barrier panel and the tongue panel can be glued to each other. This allows cornering mechanically the shell 11 and the coating layer rear 40 between the opening panel and the barrier panel. The peripheral areas of the tongues can be coated with a layer  non-stick or even be excluded from the glued assembly of the peripheral areas of the panels.

The different panels described above can be manufactured by means of any support material which may contain traditional types of cardboard, for example cardboard  pure bleached pulp (SBS) with one caliber weight categories of about 10 or more. An example of support 100 comprises a 12-gauge SBS cardboard manufactured by Mead Westvaco Corporation Another example of support is cardboard coated by a side by Easy Seal Plus ® manufactured by Mead Westvaco Corporation. The support 100 can also have a cardboard against gluing, a layered cardboard, unbleached cardboard or even cardboard synthetic or a mixture of the latter depending on the aspect that You will want to give the packaging. A type support will have at least one Side compatible with a printed version. The other side must be able host an adhesive coating. All the means used to fix the different panels and shell packing are covered for the invention The different panels must be arranged and fixed on each other so that a package can be partially printed at least on its outer part.
